Video Description

The convergence of social networking, cloud computing, and the era of mobile applications has created a new generation of emerging technologies that allow different networked devices to communicate with each other over the Internet via REST.

REST provides the benefits of being stateless; easing scalability, visibility, and reliability; and being platform- and language-agnostic. This course is a practical, hands-on guide that provides you with clear and pragmatic information so you can take advantage of the real power of RESTful services; it gives you a good foundation from which to use them in your applications.

In this video, you will master various design principles for building RESTful services. You will understand advanced topics related to OAuth and security with respect to RESTful services. This video also takes you through caching techniques, validation, rate-limiting, asynchronous operations, and other best practices to improve application responsiveness. It delves into best practices for performing pagination, documentation, and testing RESTful services.

By the end of the video, you will be able to successfully use the concepts you've learned about to design and implement applications based on RESTful services.
